A render of northeastern Germany, the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Happens to be both a nice place to live and to go for vacation!

I somehow really like this render of Swiss canton #Ticino. The elevation data isn't even exaggerated. #rayshader #rstats #dataviz #swisstopo

Back from vacation and finally able to test @researchremora's script. Works nicely, of course, many thanks!😀 Below you can find central #Switzerland based on #Swisstopo data, rendered with #rayshader in #rstats. #dataviz

I happened to watch Quantum of Solace again the other day and really liked the marble quarries at the beginning. So here's #Carrara and its nearby quarries, with the help of #rayvista #rayshader #rstats. Would be nice to get some Lidar data for this one... 😉#dataviz #JamesBond

@tylermorganwall @hughagraham Thank you!🙂

Here's a render of #Fronalpstock and the #Urnersee part of #LakeLucerne using bathymetric data from #swisstopo. Rendered with #rayshader in #rstats. #dataviz

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

Fyi, #Swisstopo has made bathymetric data for large Swiss lakes publically available. Below a combination of it with DEM data for #Interlaken #Switzerland. Rendered with #rayshader in #rstats #dataviz Link: https://t.co/6OlLVPikjK

Here are two snapshots from the animation.

The #Ruinaulta canyon or Rhine Gorge in eastern Switzerland. Rendered and animated with #rayshader in #rstats using #swisstopo data.

Gross and Chli Spannort in central Switzerland, using #swisstopo #lidar data in #rayshader. #rstats

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

Where do the Swiss live? Data from https://t.co/FrNIUGZ00a pulled with the #swissgd package in #rstats and rendered with #rayshader. There are certainly more direct ways to show such data on a map, but they would most likely leave out the fun rayshader part 🙂

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

Yes, I watched a bit Ragnarök 🌩️ lately... So here's Odda, Norway, where it was filmed. Thanks #rayvista and #rayshader!🙂 #rstats

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

It's really quite an impressive mountain - #Eiger in the Bernese Alps. Rendered with #rayvista and #rayshader in #rstats.

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

A still of the different types of landscapes in #Switzerland using #rayshader, #swisstopo data and the #swissgd and #wesanderson packages. All done, of course, in #rstats.

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

Luckily both pieces fit well together to allow for a full DEM 2m Matterhorn (admittedly lazy) spin.🙃 #rayshader #rstats #gischat

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

I probably could have done that right at the beginning... So Swisstopo's DEM 2m data ends right at the border to Italy, nicely cutting through Matterhorn.

[EconPulse @EconPulse]

And, of course, the same thing happened in Italy: below is the DEM 2m data from Aosta region's geoportale, cutting through Matterhorn from the south (the data is a few years older though).
